I'm not convinced the Timer is working properly on 28X1.
I'm working at 16MHz, so a minor tick is 16us. If I run a timing routine using (a) major ticks of 1/500 seconds (preload = 65411) I get different timing results to if I use (b) major ticks of 1/250 seconds (preload = 65286) taking the tick differences into account.
(b) results are larger than (a) results.
I'm thinking it could have something to do with the ticks in (a) being too fast for the Picaxe to handle (update Timer variable), but this is a guess.
